Legacy Of Change: Empowering Lives, Strengthening Communities ‘Those who spend their wealth in charity day and night, secretly and openly—their reward is with their Lord, and there will be no fear for them, nor will they grieve.’ (Surah Al-Baqarah 2:274) In 1980, a group of well-intentioned citizens founded Canada’s first Muslim relief organization. The rest, as they say, is history. With hundreds of millions delivered in aid, thousands of orphans sponsored, and millions of lives saved during disasters, we are proud of our past. But we understand, our work is not done yet. This is why we continue to be driven by our vision, mission, and values to make our world a more just and equitable place OUR CAUSE A World Of Hope: Our Vision And Mission For over 40 years, our leadership, staff, volunteers, and supporters shared a vision for a world without poverty and injustice. It’s a lofty ideal, but we should never aim for anything less. Afterall, we are God’s vicegerents on earth. When we mobilize for emergency responses or survey an area of the world that needs our help, we embark on a mission to move families from crisis to sustainability. The goal is not to make them dependent on aid, but rather free of any need.
